Zhong Anping saw the affectionate performance of the two opposite, and was happy for his partner, but he also felt a sense of loss, he didn't understand where his loss came from, after thinking for a while, he beat his spirits and continued to roast the sparrow, handed the roasted sparrow to his sister and Zhong Juying, and continued to roast it.

Zhong Anmei was careful and noticed the change in her eldest brother, but she didn't ask, but roasted a sparrow herself and handed it to her eldest brother to eat.

Tian Sisi also took out all the food brought in the bag, including melon seeds, peanuts, fragrant cakes, etc., which were very hearty, and there was actually a bag of potatoes and yarrow, and even a dozen eggs, no wonder Tian Xinhua sighed just now.

"Anping, Ankang, what are your plans for the future?"

Tian Xinhua asked the two partners, Zhong Anping and Zhong Ankang dropped out of school after graduating from junior high school because of the composition of the family, and worked in the village every day, while their sister Zhong Anmei was already in junior high school and was considering whether to drop out of school and go to the team to earn work.

"What else can we do? Isn't it just working in the fields to earn a lot of money! Zhong Ankang bit the sparrow fiercely, as if to vent the depression in his heart.

"yes, what else can people like us have planned?" Zhong Anmei also said gloomily.

For a while, everyone was quiet, and they didn't even care about the sparrows in their hands, their faces were confused and unwilling, they were all people with the same experience, they had suffered discrimination and cold treatment since childhood, obviously they were no worse than anyone else, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't see the end.

"Why are you so discouraged all of a sudden? We're all so young. What is there to worry about, there is still a long way to go, how can you see the bottom of the road! ”

Tian Xinhua smiled and cheered for his partners, he actually vaguely knew some changes in the current political situation, and understood that the turmoil like the current situation would not last long, and no one knew what it would be like in the future. But he can be sure of one thing, there must be opportunities everywhere at that time, as long as you dare to move forward and dare to explore, he is sure that with the wisdom and ability of these partners. Definitely not too badly mixed.

Tian Xinhua said very vaguely. Zhong Anping's eyes lit up, he looked up at Tian Xinhua, and saw that his friend's eyes were full of deep meaning, Zhong Anping remembered. Xinhua has been in Beijing for the past two years. Beijing is the political center of the country. The news there must be better than on their side, maybe there is any new news from Xinhua?

Are they really going to get ahead? Zhong Anping, who was suppressed by the current darkness and was almost desperate, seemed to hold on to a life-saving straw, and he asked Tian Xinhua with his eyes again. Tian Xinhua nodded slightly, and Zhong Anping ecstatically bit the sparrow in his hand, showing a completely different liveliness from usual.

Zhong Ankang didn't understand why his eldest brother was so happy, but he never liked to think too much about things, and the sadness just now quickly dissipated, and at this moment he was fishing out the fragrant potatoes and yarrow from the fire and distributing them to everyone.

"Yes, Brother Xinhua is right, winter has passed, will spring be far away?"

Tian Sisi quoted a poem very literally, vividly describing the current situation, it is now 1975, when the great man has begun to return to the central government to preside over the work, but in the second half of November, this great man will be severely hit, until 1977 began to really preside over the work, then China will be like a track and field athlete, constantly surpassing.

But the most fortunate thing is that this turmoil will end in October next year, and people like Tang Tieshan and Zhang Mingliu will be rehabilitated in a short time, and in October 1977, the college entrance examination will begin to resume.

This is an excellent opportunity for Zhong Anping and them, with the intelligence and good foundation of these two brothers, I believe that it should not be difficult for them to take the university entrance examination, as long as they read well in the past two years.

Although the two brothers Zhong Anping did not mix well in the previous life, she also heard that they suffered a lot in the middle, and Zhong Anping even paid the price of his health, in his previous life, she heard that Zhong Anping's health was very poor, and he had to take Chinese medicine every winter to recuperate his body, and in this life, I hope that these two brothers can take fewer detours!

"Brother Anping, Brother Ankang, I think you should pick up the textbooks in school again, no matter when, there will be nothing wrong with learning more, maybe you can use it in the future!"

Tian Sisi added a few more words, Tian Xinhua glanced at Tian Sisi vaguely, and nodded in agreement with her statement.

"What else can I do with reading? People like us can't go to university! Besides, there is no need to take the university entrance examination now, it is all recommended, and we rich peasants will never have the opportunity. ”

Zhong Ankang didn't have much interest in this, he didn't think that reading would be of any help to people from families like him, but it was better to work more and earn more work to improve his family.

Zhong Anping and Tang Qiubai's eyes lit up, and then they fell into deep thought, as if they were thinking about Tian Sisi's words, Tian Sisi didn't say much, and if they said more, it would arouse suspicion, and even if Zhong Anping and they didn't go to college, according to the trajectory of their previous lives, their future would not be very bad, at most, they would send some tonic wine to Zhong Anping to recuperate.

After the men had eaten what they had brought, and put out the fire with earth, and poured some water on it, they left the top of the hill with confidence.

It is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, plus the current Yuequan Mountain has not built a road, the mountain road is very steep, Tian Sisi grabbed Tian Xinhua's hand tightly, and did not dare to step on a wrong step, for fear that if he stepped on the air and slipped down, not only did he suffer, but also had to affect others.

When she walked halfway up the mountain, several girls were a little tired, everyone sat down to rest, Tian Sisi slapped her sore legs vigorously, she was tired to death, she didn't exercise for a long time, and suddenly such a large amount of exercise was really unbearable.

"Sisi, I think you just have less work, if you go to the mountains to collect firewood every day like me and Juying, you will definitely not be unable to climb." Zhong Anmei made fun of Tian Sisi.

Tian Sisi snorted, she didn't bother to pay attention to her, she wanted to go to the mountains to collect firewood, but Zhang Mingliu didn't let her do it, saying that she would make her hands thick, as a lady, how could she not have a pair of slender hands!

They rested for a while, and were about to leave, when suddenly a cold wind blew, and there were several vague moans, mixed with a few voices, which sounded like men's voices. (To be continued.) )
